Big Brother Naija Lockdown Season 5 winner, Olamilekan Agbeleshe, popularly known as Laycon has recounted his years of ‘Sapa’ and the desperate measures it drove him to take.
The artist recounted a time in 2013 when he faced extreme hunger and resorted to soaking garri in toilet water.
Laycon revealed that during that challenging weekend, he found himself isolated in his accommodation, grappling with severe hunger and lacking any means to alleviate it.
He emphasized the intensity of his hunger, stating, “I wasn’t hungry o, I was starving.”
Having no funds and limited alternatives, Laycon said he turned to utilizing water from the toilet tap at Shodeinde Hostel to soak garri.
He said: “One of my lowest lows was using Shodeinde Hostel toilet water to soak garri in 2013. I was alone in my wing that weekend, and I was starving. I wasn’t hungry o, I was starving. So I soaked Garri with no sugar and used toilet tap water to drink it… as I Dey soak the garri, water dey commot for my eyes.”
